CHOOCHI

Choochi is a white and tabby, short-haired, spayed female. She is approximately 6 years old. Choochi is a sweet, affectionate little cat who loves a fuss. She is looking for a home where there are no other cats and dogs. She has previously lived with an older person so should not be homed with very young children but should be happy to live with older children. Choochi has been microchipped and is currently having her vaccinations brought up to date.

On being examined at the vets Choochi has been found to have a heart murmur. The vets have advised that she is a healthy cat at the moment and the heart murmer may never cause her any problems, but a new owner should be aware that she might need heart tablets at some time in the future, we can advise new owners what to look for. Due to this Choochi will be homed as a Golden Oldie for any veterinary treatment relating to her heart murmur, meaning Cats Protection will cover the costs.

SOOTY

Sooty is a 4 year old, long-haired, black, neutered male. Sooty is a friendly boy who loves being groomed but he can let you know when he has had enough. It is important he is groomed regularly to keep his coat in good condition. He is looking for a home where there are no children younger than teenagers, and where there are no other cats or dogs as he is not happy in the company of other animals. Sooty is microchipped and will be vaccinated.

TICKLE

Tickle is a mature (12yrs+) black, fluffy, spayed female. She is looking for a home where there are no children or other pets so she can have a peaceful retirement. Tickle is a very sweet cat. She has recently been diagnosed with kidney problems, she is not on any medication at the moment but is on a special diet. Tickle is being rehomed as a Golden Oldie so we will cover all non-routine vets bills (i.e. we will not pay for worming, flea treatment, vaccinations) and we could also contribute towards costs of her special diet if necessary.

LUCY

Lucy is a 14 year old, short-haired, patch white and tortie, spayed female. She is a sweet, loving cat who enjoys a fuss. She is looking for a quiet home, where there are no children, other cats or dogs. She has been vet-checked and is fit and healthy and very good for her age. She is microchipped and vaccinated.

FLOSS & FUDGE

Floss and Fudge are both short-haired, spayed females, aged around nine years old. Floss is black and white and Fudge is black. They may be a little shy to start with but when they know you both cats enjoy a fuss.

Floss and Fudge are looking for a quiet home with no other cats or dogs and no young children. They need to find a home where they can stay together. Floss and Fudge are currently having their vaccinations brought up-to-date and will be microchipped. This could be completed in their new home and we would cover the costs.

 

MARMITE

Marmite is a four year old, short-haired, black, neutered male. Marmite is a very sweet, friendly boy but he panics when he is picked up so he needs a home where there are no children and also where there are no other pets.

He has recently had all but two teeth removed due to an infection, his mouth has now healed well. He is a bit of a fussy eater preferring meat in gravy rather than jelly and he does not show any interest in dry food.
 

Marmite has previously suffered injuries to his chest bone and one of his hind legs. He will need to be kept on medication, in his food once daily, to help the joint in his hind leg. He may need further treatment for his leg as he gets older and this will need monitoring by a vet. Marmite will be homed under our "Golden Oldie" scheme and we will pay veterinary costs for any treatment related to his existing condition. Marmite has been microchipped and vaccinated.

Cats Not in Our Care Seeking Homes

Here are some cats we have looking for new homes who are not in our foster care but are still in their own homes. Unfortunately we do not have facilities to bring all the cats we rehome into foster care, and rehoming direct from home-to-home can help with the numbers of cats we have looking for new homes. All potential homes for these cats will still be subject to Cats Protection rehoming policies and procedures including a home visit and paperwork.

PHOEBE

Phoebe is a very pretty short-haired, tortie, spayed female. She is approx 7 years old. Phoebe originally came from a farm and although she has now for many years been living in a home and enjoying her home comforts which includes sleeping on the bed, she does like to spend lots of time outdoors exploring. She does like attention but this is on her terms and she will let you know when she wants to be left alone.

Due to Phoebe's unpredictable nature, we are looking for a home where she can choose if she wants to be indoors or outdoors, preferably in a rural area. There should be no young children, dogs or other cats. Phoebe needs a special family who will understand her and not expect her to be a lap cat.

TISH

Tish is quite a small, neutered female. She is black with a little white under her chin, and she is short-haired. She is approximately 12 years old. Tish is a very sweet, loving cat, she likes attention and to be stroked. She can be a little nervous so she will be happiest in a home where there are no young children or other pets. Tish does like to go outside to explore as and when she likes so ideally her new home should have a catflap, although she is happy to use a litter tray indoors if necessary, One of her favourite games is playing with shiny things and hiding them! Tish is fit and healthy and is up-to-date with her vaccinations, flea treatment and worming. She is still currently in her own home and her current owners have found themselves in the very sad position of needing to find her a new home. They would like Tish to remain with them until a new home is found for her so she does not need to come into foster care.

LILLI

Lilli is seven years old, she is a black and white, semi-longhaired, spayed female. She is fully vaccinated. She loves company, cuddles and home comforts and is quite a homely cat and would rather be at home on the sofa than out hunting! She needs a home where there are no children or dogs, but she has lived with another cat before. She will be shy to start with but once she knows you is very affectionate. Lilli is currently still in her own home but due to a change in circumstances needs to find a new home.

WORKING CATS

We often have working cats looking for outdoor homes on farms, stables and smallholdings. In return for regular meals, they can offer a very effective and safe method of vermin control, especially around animal feed. We generally like to home at least two of these cats together as they are more likely to stay where they are placed if they have company.

These working cats tend to have been born outside or lived as strays for quite some time, and are not happy with a lot of human contact or being confined in a domestic situation. They are much happier living outside, where they can enjoy their freedom but receive regular food, water and have a dry barn or stable where they can sleep.

When we first place a working cat on site, they need to be confined in a cat-proof place for the first 2-3 weeks so they get accustomed to their new surroundings, if you do not have a suitable place for this we do have collapsible pens we can lend out for this purpose until they are released.
